I applied in-person. I interviewed at Amazon in Jun 2020
Interview
The interview process was very thorough. Everyone wanted to get a good idea of my past accomplishments and how they tied to the leadership principals. There were some repeat questions throughout the whole interview though. I think they could have done a better job coordinating who is going to ask what versus making someone repeat themselves.

Question 1
Tell me about a time when you made a sacrificed short term gain for something that would create long term value for the business.
Tell me about a time you solved a big problem in your company.
Tell me about a time when you used feedback about your team to drive a change. How did you gather or receive feedback on your team's performance? What was the outcome?
Tell me about a time when you not only met a goal but considerably exceeded expectations. How were you able to do it? What challenges did you have to overcome?
Tell me about a time when your team’s goals were out of alignment with another team you relied on in order to meet your goal. How did you work with the other team?
I applied online. I interviewed at Amazon (São Paulo, )
Interview
O processo é super fluído e rápido. Inicia-se com um phone screen para entendimento de adequação cultural e requisitos básicos da role. Após isso passa para um loop com 4 ou 5 entrevistadores onde no geral se pedem cases ligados ao principios da Amazon. Após essa fase já existe um comitê decidindo pela offer ou não.
The process took a very long time and after 4 rounds of interviwes I got only an auto rejection email. The company check only the Leadership principles, and it looks like they don't have an interest in smth else. Anyway people were nice, the case study was interesting as well.
